Problem installing 2.1.5 using MacPorts

I did my best to correctly follow the instructions on the wiki for
installing gnucash-devel on OSX. 
http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/MacOSX/MacPortsDetail

system is a MacBook Pro 2.4

I installed the latest version of Xcode from apple (v 2.4.1). 
I installed the X11 environment from the included disk (apple provided).
Then installed the MacPorts Binary, and ran the self update.

I then issued the command: sudo ports -d install gnucash-devel +guile16

I seemed to complete without problem, but when I ran it, I got this
error:

me$ gnucash &
gnc.bin-Message: main: binreloc relocation support was disable at
configure time.

I then went back to the wiki and did:

sudo port uninstall gnucash-devel
sudo port -f uninstall slib-guile
sudo port -f uninstall guile
sudo port clean slib-guile guile    # for good measure
sudo port -f install guile16
sudo port -f install slib-guile16
sudo port -f install gnucash-devel

I then ran gnucash and got the same error. I executed gnucash from the
X11 environment and got this backtrace:

me$ ./gnucash &
[1] 1971
me$ gnc.bin-Message: main: binreloc relocation support was disable at
configure time.

Backtrace:

   ?:  9*  [catalog:try-read ...

<unnamed port>: In expression (user-vicinity):

[1]+  Exit 1                  ./gnucash


Any ideas what I am missing or doing wrong? I appreciate the help.
